DISCLAIMER: Unfortunately, I don't own General Hospital. If I did Skye
would be the main character and she'd be with Jax. Jason and Courtney would
be a happy couple, as would Sonny and Carly, and Elizabeth would be dead
along with Ric.
AUTHOR'S NOTE: This is my first GH fanfic of a few I'll be posting. Skye is my favorite character as you may notice if you read any of my future fics, but I don't know much about her. I've only just got hooked on GH around the time Brenda showed up so I don't know much about her past. If I get something wrong, please correct me, and if anyone would be so nice as to send me a little summary of what they know I'd greatly appreciate it. Well on with the story!
Skye Quartermaine sighed as she threw open the door of her family mansion and stepped inside. Still feeling the restlessness excitement she'd felt all morning she set her purse and coat on the table in the foyer and went off in search of her baby cousin Kristina.
She found the baby in her nursery with her nanny as the woman rocked her gently in the rocking chair. "May I?" she asked when the woman noticed her.
She gave her a skeptical look; "I don't think so."
"I'm not gonna' run off with her," Skye sighed as her excitement began to fade.
The woman opened her mouth again to protest, but received a warning glare from Skye and wisely shut it. She'd received many tongue-lashings from young Ms. Quartermaine since she'd arrived, and knew when not to tango with her. She sighed and handed the baby to her cousin. "I'll come back for her in ten minutes," she replied.
"Sure," Skye nodded, already more interested in her little cousin than the nanny's warnings. "Hello Princess Brat," she said with a bright smile. "Would you like to take a stroll in the gardens with me?" she asked. She didn't expect the child to answer but the baby smiled knowingly.
Skye grinned at her and carried her out of the room and downstairs into the study where she found her grandfather and her ex. "Grandfather, Jax," she said with a smile.
"What are you doing with my great-grandchild?" Edward asked suspiciously.
"We're taking our daily walk in the gardens," she replied and turned to the baby. "Isn't that right Princess Brat?"
"If Alexis finds out you're near her child-" Edward started referring to Kristina's mother.
"Oh be quiet," Skye cut him off but without harshness. "She doesn't come by this early." She turned to her ex and smiled brighter. "Would you like to join us Mr. Jacks?"
Jax smiled. "Who could resist two such beautiful women?" he asked.
Skye's smile turned uncomfortable. Jax had called her beautiful before, but that had been when they were married or dating. It had been months since she'd heard those words from anyone seeing as how he was probably the only one who thought she was, in her mind.
Skye was in fact quiet a beautiful woman. She was tall and skinny, but not without all the necessary curves, and had layered auburn hair. Her eyes were a golden honey and her cheekbones were high due to her French ancestry. She was always decked out in style, as she was today in an expensive CoutoriƩ (I'm not sure on that spelling) suit the color of a spring sky.
Quickly she masked her discomfort with a smile and started out the patio doors that led to the garden. Jax placed a hand on the small of her back to lead her out and winked at the child in his ex's arms.
"What the hell is she doing with my baby?" they heard an angry voice from behind them.
They turned to find Alexis striding over to the threesome with her hands on her hips. "Alexis, what are you doing here?" Skye asked more than somewhat surprised.
"Saving my child from you it looks like," Alexis answered and took the baby from Skye's arms and shot her a look of dislike.
"I've told you a million times Alexis, I'm not going to hurt Kristina!" Skye exclaimed.
"And I don't believe you!" Alexis shot back. "Jax how could you let your filthy ex put her hands on my baby?"
"Hey!" Skye exclaimed. "You're his ex too!"
"Skye," Jax intervened. "Can't you be civil to Alexis just this once?"
"Oh that's right just stick up for her like you always do!" Skye mumbled.
"I'm not stick up for Alexis, Skye," Jax replied.
"Oh yes you are!" she corrected. "You're always defending her like she's never done anything wrong! Killing a man just isn't enough for you people is it?"
"Listen here you little-" Alexis began.
"Hey!" Skye's father exclaimed as he and his son walked into the room. "What the hell is going on in here?"
"You're brat had her hands on my daughter again!" Alexis summarized quickly.
"Jax and I were just going to take her for a walk in the gardens!" Skye said to her father's questioning gaze.
"Ms. Quartermaine?" someone called from the door.
"What?" Skye asked, her tone still depicting the resentment she felt towards Alexis as she turned around to face the Quartermaine butler.
"There's someone here to see you," he replied.
"Who'd want to see Skye?" Alexis mumbled.
"A Collin Francis?" the butler continued as if he hadn't been interrupted.
"Collin?" Skye repeated her face quickly changed to joy as Collin appeared in the doorway. "Collin!" she exclaimed and ran over to him, jumping in his arms as he caught her up with a laugh. "It's so good to see you!" she exclaimed with a squeal as he set her down, keeping his arms comfortably around her.
Her face quickly fell as she registered the only reason why he would come. "Ohmigod! What's wrong?" she asked. "What's happened? Has something happened to Dawne? Where is she?"
"Relax Skye, Dawne's fine," Collin said soothingly. "She's outside-"
The relief was noticeable in her eyes, but quickly changed to surprise. "Dawne's here?"
"Yes she's outside playing with-" his words were lost as Skye tore past him and out the front door with him and the rest of the group following curiously behind at a less enthusiastic pace.
Skye threw open the door and raced outside and found a little auburn haired girl in a green frilly dress playing with a dog. "Dawne!" Skye exclaimed and raced across the lawn to the girl.
"Mommy!" the little girl exclaimed.
